"Unraveling French Cinema" provides a much needed introduction to
the complexities of French film for students, cineastes, and the
movie-loving public.
Looks at the differences between French and American national
cinema
Explores how French directors shape their films around two
potentially divergent goals: the narration of a story and an
elaboration of some theory about film itself.
Demystifies the "difficulty" of French cinema, allowing the
American movie-goer to enjoy films that are too often perplexing at
a first viewing.
Offers extended analyses of classic, New Wave, and contemporary
French films--including "L'Atalante," "Adele H.", "The Rules of the
Game," and "Cache."
